About the adventure
Beyond the mists lies an ancient legendary valley: Barovia. A land of dark and corrupt mysteries. A place where witches, werewolves, ghosts, zombies, and vampires reside. One being reigns supreme in Barovia: Count Strahd Von Zarovich. You are now trapped in these lands and must find a way to cross the mists again before darkness overtakes you. Meet the inhabitants of this valley, face numerous dangers, and find hidden treasures to reveal the forgotten past. Barovia is an evil land, yet majestic and grandiose for those who take the time to contemplate it. Traverse swamps, abandoned villages, ancient ruins, and snow-capped mountains, and face Strahd at Castle Ravenloft, where it all began and where it will all end. Will you stand against Strahd and his minions, or will you let the darkness corrupt your heart? You may be the last hope for the inhabitants of Barovia, or their worst nightmare... Gather your party and face the danger together. Repel the darkness and lift the veil of mystery that surrounds this cursed valley. Session 0 is free!

About me
I am a french GM and I started DMing in 2019. I am most familiar with Call of Cthulhu, Dungeons and Dragons 5e and Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay games. I wish to offer short and immersive experiences for new players who want to discover TTRPG. So if you're interested, I would be pleased to help you discover those amazing worlds through my narrative ! I especially like mystery plots, social interactions and well paced combats encounters.

Creating your character
We will create the characters together during session 0 using Foundry VTT. I am available on Discord for any questions about your character or to modify your character sheet if necessary. If this is your first role-playing experience, I will take the time to explain all the subtleties of character creation and help you through the process as clearly as possible. If you have a specific idea for your character, then we will find a way to bring them to life. Let's create your hero together and forge a unique and epic adventure!

What JojoFrenchman brings to the table
A complete VTT experience: I will give you access to Foundry VTT with battle maps, tokens, character sheets, rules, music, and more. I will also provide you with the Discord server. Everything is ready for you to dive right into the adventure! The “cool” rule: I will follow the rules as long as they don't affect the fun of playing. Feel free to suggest original actions, and if the idea is great, I'll do my best to make it happen (but you'll have to roll the dice first!). Tactical combat and perilous exploration: You'll need to work as a team and be creative to survive. Many traps and enemies await you. Use each hero's strengths to overcome all obstacles. A narrative experience: With an immersive atmosphere, carefully crafted music, powerful character voices, and precise descriptions, I will make this campaign an epic, unique adventure worthy of your legend... or your death...
